It also features a two-bay truck service center that is open 24/7 and staffed by ASE-certified technicians. Other conveniences include six diesel dispensers, 100-space truck parking area, emergency road service, a lounge area with game room and seven marble-tiled showers. The facility is also WiFi-enabled throughout the property.
